Our new event-tagging approach may improve memory performance in older adults. However, cognitive aging is idiosyncratic, and likewise, memory interventions are not one-size-fits-all. We’re continuing to investigate who can benefit from this approach and why, with the goal of extending its reach.

If you're at #CSBBCS, come hear me talk about @sarahehenderson.bsky.social's work on event tagging - a novel intervention aimed at improving event memory in older adults. 🌞 9am, HNE room 37 🌞

Great science and great friends at CNS. I shared new work from my postdoc @audreyduarte.bsky.social We find that depressive symptoms are linked to greater neural evidence of proactive interference at encoding which predicts subsequent errors at retrieval. This effect seems to be exacerbated by age.

Exciting new preprint! We use concepts from event cognition to inform a promising new intervention to improve older adults' episodic memory.

Thrilled to share this work now published in Cerebral Cortex! doi.org/10.1093/cerc... We apply Greedy State Boundary Search in EEG to identify neural state boundaries and show that the degree of shift, but not their temporal synchrony, predicts memory performance in both older and younger adults.

New paper out with @karampbell.bsky.social and Caitlin Mahy! We tested whether associative memory improvements in children aged 8-12 were related to the development of associative binding or attentional control. We had children complete an implicit and explicit associative memory task.
